|
Comedy, 77 min, b/w
Directed by: Jules Dassin
Cast: Susan Peters, Herbert Marshall, Mary Astor, Elliott Reid
A middle aged couple are in court going through a divorce when it emerges that something that was said or done by their adult children had caused a misunderstanding that eventually leads to the couple realising that they don't want to seperate at all, much to the pleasure of the children.
The couple then hug each other and agree that there's some unfinished business to take care of. They then chase the children out of the court with the father chasing the son and the mother chasing daughter.
The mother (Mary Astor) soon catches up with the daughter (Susan Peters), sits down, puts her across her knee and administers 12 firm spanks to her bottom, all on screen.
